fototazo Book Dummy Workshop

Thomas shows photobooks to Mariana, Lina, Camilo, Sofía and Daniel

Thomas Locke Hobbs joined us in Medellín on April 5th and 6th to offer a book dummy workshop at my home for nine participants: Sofía Rojas, Walter Londoño, Mariana Betancur, Camilo Pérez, Lina Piedrahita, Byron Pazmiño, Natalia Lopera, Daniel Gallego and Juliana Henao.

The group learned four binding techniques on the first day and also took part in a conversation about material considerations in book construction. That evening, they created a layout of their book. On the second day, they printed and bound their work. Results can be viewed below.
